"The eighth Star Painting, the Universe Star Painting, seems to be completely different from the previous seven Star Paintings."
Su Ping noticed it when he tried to condense the eighth Star Painting. The eighth Star Painting required 72 stars, which was nine stars more than the seventh Star Painting.
However, in order to condense a star, pure energy alone was no longer enough. Instead, it required Dao-Entry level laws!
Every star had to contain a Dao-Level law in order to stabilize the star and form an Astral Formation!
Su Ping had mastered less than ten Dao-Level laws so far!
Apart from the four supreme laws, the rest were the Path of Fire, Path of Thunder, Path of Darkness, Path of Illusion, and Path of Sword!
There were nine in total!
The Path of Fire was the first to enter the Path of Dao. The Path of Thunder was also the first law that Su Ping came into contact with and comprehended. The Path of Darkness was related to his Ultimate Darkness Constitution. As his constitution was awakened, he naturally comprehended the Path of Dao.
The Path of Illusion came from the Sea of Illusions.
The Path of Sword was his Path of Attack. After mastering the Path of Sword, he could easily create sword techniques and fuse many laws into his Path of Sword to perform extremely powerful Unparalleled Sword Techniques.
"I've only completed one-eighth of it!"
"Although the eighth Star Painting doesn't require what kind of Path each star is condensed. Even if it's a weaker one, it can be done as long as one reaches the Dao-Level. However, it requires 72 Dao-Level laws, which can't be done in a short time. Those who aren't good at comprehending might not be able to comprehend it in their entire lives …"
Su Ping smiled bitterly in his heart.
If things were the same as before, he would only need to spend some resources to exchange for elixirs that could replenish his energy, and he would be able to cultivate and condense stars quickly.
He would be able to complete the accumulation in two or three years at most!
However, things were different now. It would take him at least a hundred years.
I've only been cultivating for ten years. A hundred years is too long … Su Ping heaved a sigh. He was beginning to understand the pain of the talented Star Lords who were slowly improving their cultivation.
"Is there anything you want to know about cultivation or need?"
Inside the shrine, as the two of them walked, Ji Xueqing finally could not help but speak first.
She followed Su Ping and wandered around the entire temple. She did not feel like she was here to accompany Su Ping in his cultivation, but was brought by Su Ping to visit the palace he lived in.
Ji Xueqing did not know why Su Ping could still be so indifferent and waste time here when he was about to participate in the Trials of the Gods in just three months!
After all, how precious was this opportunity?
When the news was released, all of them were collectively envious.
Those who didn't have the title of Supremacy would probably be envious, unless they were those top-notch Heaven Monarchs that even Supremes couldn't do anything to.
It was a pity that the True God's inheritance was restricted to those below the Ascendant State. Otherwise, Su Ping and the others wouldn't have had a chance to fight for it. The old guys would have been fighting for it.
At that moment, such a rare opportunity had been presented to those lucky kids by the Supremes of the universe. However, Su Ping was still wasting his time wandering around in his own garden instead of trying to become stronger before the trials.
"I want to grasp the path."
Su Ping came back to his senses after hearing Ji Xueqing's words. Compared to condensing the eighth Astral Painting, he felt that it would be faster to find an unknown path that didn't belong to the many laws and establish the third realm.
"Grasp the path?" Ji Xueqing nodded. She was familiar with that.
Su Ping was in the Star State; it was indeed necessary for him to grasp the path and build up his foundation, which would benefit him when he became a Star Lord or even an Ascendant State cultivator.
"What path are you focusing on right now? I remember that our master teaches the law of life to his disciples to help them grasp the law of life and improve their survivability."
Ji Xueqing looked at Su Ping and said, "I have a way to help you grasp the law of life, but it requires a lot of herbs. Also …"
"I've already grasped the law of life."
Su Ping's words made Ji Xueqing swallow her words. She was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Ping. She was gradually relieved when she remembered that her junior brother was a monster who could condense a small world while still in the Fate State.
She nodded slightly. "It seems that you're quite talented, junior brother. How about I teach you the law of destruction? However, it can only help you grasp the basics. If you want to grasp the path …"
"I've also grasped the law of destruction," said Su Ping.
"…"
Ji Xueqing was silent for a long time. She took a deep breath and said, "Junior brother, you've only reached the Star State a few years ago, yet you've already made such progress. No wonder our master thinks so highly of you."
"Does our master think highly of me?"
"Of course. Why else would he ask me to teach you?" Ji Xueqing rolled her eyes at Su Ping. The other teachers were all in the Ascendant State, and she was the only one who was a Heavenly Lord. How could her junior brother not know anything?
Su Ping couldn't help but look at her. He remembered hearing from Elder Yan that most of the senior brothers and sisters who joined the sect at the beginning had already become Heavenly Lords.
"You can choose the law of time or the law of Chaos," said Ji Xueqing casually. Ji Xueqing said very casually, "In three months, I have the confidence to let you enter the Dao in one of them, but it will …"
"Senior sister, I'm capable of both of them," said Su Ping in a low voice.
Ji Xueqing stopped and stared at Su Ping for a long time, before she said slowly, "Junior brother, are you sure you're not kidding?"
"No …" Su Ping couldn't help but smile bitterly. He raised his hand, and the aura of four laws appeared in his palm.
Ji Xueqing glanced at him and found it hard to move her eyes away. Her chest heaved under her white tracksuit, but she didn't return to normal until a moment later. She looked at Su Ping thoughtfully and said, "So to speak, junior brother, you've condensed a small world and grasped the four supreme laws. You're already qualified to cultivate your small world to the supreme state. You only need to fill it with other laws …"
"My small world is already at the supreme state," said Su Ping.
"…"
Ji Xueqing couldn't hold it in anymore.
Su Ping had rendered her speechless again and again. She hadn't been so agitated for years, given her status as a Heavenly Lord.
Can you let me finish my sentence first every time? Can you?
Huh?!
"Senior sister Ji?" Su Ping suddenly felt that the space around him was tense, and he keenly sensed a killing intent. He couldn't help but look at his senior sister, who didn't look right.
"It's nothing."
Ji Xueqing's chest heaved for a moment, before she calmed down.
She said indifferently, "So to speak, junior brother, you've already cultivated your small world to the supreme state when you're only in the Star State? You have a chance to reach the top of the Divine Lord Rank with such combat ability, right? "
"Yes." Su Ping nodded.
Ji Xueqing didn't know what to say after seeing Su Ping nod so naturally.
You're only in the Star State, yet you've defeated all the Star Lords and reached the top of the Divine Lord Rank. Why are you nodding so naturally?
"In that case …"
After a moment of silence, Ji Xueqing said, "I don't think I have anything else to teach you."
She already wanted to leave.
Although she was an unparalleled genius who had already become a Heavenly Lord, she still felt abused when she was with a little monster like Su Ping.
If Su Ping were to receive the True God's legacies, he would definitely soar to new heights and break the record for the youngest Ascendant State cultivator in the universe!
The more she thought about it, the more complicated she felt.
Didn't they say that opportunities were for those who were prepared?
I'm already ready to become a Heavenly Lord, but you're jumping ship?
"Senior sister Ji, you must be kidding." Su Ping quickly said when he heard that Ji Xueqing was about to leave. "Senior sister, you're a Heavenly Lord; there's a lot that I can learn from you. I want to learn about the great paths of the universe, especially those that don't belong to our universe. I wonder if you can teach me?"
"Laws that don't belong to our universe?"
Ji Xueqing was stunned for a moment. She looked at Su Ping, only to find that he was sincere. She asked, "What do you mean by laws that don't belong to our universe? Do you want to create laws and paths on your own? "
Her eyes widened. He wanted to do what the Ascendant State experts did when he was only in the Star State?
Why aren't you unbelievable?
Fine, Su Ping seemed to be unbelievable enough.
Ji Xueqing's lips twitched.
"Well …"
Su Ping didn't expect that Ji Xueqing, a Heavenly Lord, wouldn't understand what he meant.
He was also surprised by what she said; what he was doing was indeed similar to what an Ascendant State expert would do.
However, there were still some differences.
The Ascendant State was to create one's own path!
What kind of path could be considered as a self-created path?
Obviously, paths that didn't belong to this universe had never been seen before. That was why they were considered "created"!
He, on the other hand, had grasped other paths of the universe, such as the path of illusions in the Unreal Ocean. The path originated from the Unreal Ocean, which was why he was able to establish a second small world.
However, he didn't create it himself; it was more like he had stolen it.
Su Ping felt that he had to look for other paths of the universe if he wanted to establish another small world. The paths of thunder, fire and darkness were the fundamental paths of the universe; they could only form the first world.
He had to avoid those paths if he wanted to establish another small world.
If Su Ping could create a path of his own, it would also be an unknown path; it would also be possible for him to establish a world!
However, that was obviously more difficult. Su Ping didn't have any clue yet. After all, it was a path that only the Ascendant State experts could take. Once he established a path, his cultivation would soar and he would reach the Ascendant State.
That way, he wouldn't have a chance to establish more small worlds.
"I want to find the source of paths." Su Ping revealed his true thoughts and said, "Senior Sister Ji, have you ever seen the source of paths? What's the source of paths?"
If he could see the source of paths, Su Ping might be able to find a way to cultivate the third small world.
"The source of paths?" Ji Xueqing was stunned for a moment. She couldn't help but look at Su Ping with shock in her eyes. Her junior brother was too ambitious. He wanted to perceive the source of paths when he was only in the Star State?
"Every path has a source. It's said that at the end of the source of paths in the universe, there's a final source where countless paths converge. That's the beginning of the universe. However, that's just a legend in the ancient books. Nobody can see it, not even Celestials …"
